Folklore Group Soko from Chicago for SfS

The support for the humanitarian work of Serbs for Serbs continues to grow in the UnitesStates, particularly in Chicago. With the increasing frequency of charity events and the success of the Trojka iz Bloka project, more people are getting involved. Recently, the Folklore Group Soko from the Old Holy Resurrection Serbian Orthodox Church of Chicago held it’s Fall Folkore Festival.

The Soko folklore festival is a celebration of these children’s desire to keep Serbian tradition, heritage and customs alive in the US. In hosting this event, the money raised is used for maintenance of their traditional folklore costumes and growth of the folklore group. This time, the children and their families decided to do more with the money they raised, and made the decision to donate a part of their proceeds to Serbs for Serbs. Thus, the Soko folklore group donated $350 to Serbs for Serbs to invest into Serbian children and their families in the Balkans.

The Soko families should be proud that their children are not only keeping Serbian traditions alive in the Diaspora, but they are also remembering their brothers and sisters in Serbia as well. We at Serbs for Serbs are greatful for this generous donation and would like to thank these children for their warm hearted gesture.
